Enter & Exit Erraid

Here is the perfect retreat, particularly on a Monday morning. Erraid is at the south-west corner of the Ross of Mull and is within sight of Iona. The latter receives tens of thousands of visitors a year; the former does not. It was a hub for lighthouse construction and servicing while now the Findhorn Community endeavours to provide enlightenment for people. The pier and buildings are approached by boat; one of its fine beaches provides a route on foot at low tide for entering and exiting. Discover more by clicking on here.
